Definitions
- Control module for a relay and its arrangement with a relay.
- the invention relates to a control module for a relay, which has a housing with a main connection side, from which load connection elements emerge, and with a different auxiliary connection side, from which control plug connections exit.
- the invention relates to an arrangement of a relay and such a control module.
- the aim of the present invention is to provide a control module and a combination of this control module with a relay, this module can be coupled to the relay if necessary and in this case forms not only a mechanical but also an electrical unit with the relay, while the relay can also be operated normally without the control module.
- this object is achieved in a module of the type mentioned at the outset in that the control module has a module housing with a coupling side which is matched to the auxiliary connection side of the relay housing, and in that coupling side, complementary plug connections are provided in this coupling side to the control plug-in connections of the relay electrical Enable tric connection of the control module to the relay.
- the control module has on its housing a coupling side with plug elements with which it can be plugged onto a corresponding relay housing which has an auxiliary connection side with corresponding control plug connections. Since the relay itself always has a main connection side, via which coil connections can also be connected, the control module could be operated with the plug connections on its coupling side towards the relay. However, in addition to its coupling side, the control module preferably also has a further module connection side with external connections. In this case, a particularly good electrical isolation of all control and test connections from the load connections of the relay is possible.
- the plug-in control module enables the use of a universally constructed relay both with and without this control module. It is conceivable that the relay contains only additional connection elements in a cap with completely the same structure of all functional elements. In this case, for example, by replacing the cap, either a normal relay without additional control or a relay that can be combined with the control module can be created.
- both the relay housing as well as the block housing each approximately cuboid, the auxiliary connection side of the relay housing and the coupling side of the block housing having the same areas, such that an approximately cuboid combination housing is formed when the two housings are plugged together.
- the two housings are not only electrically but also mechanically connected.
- interlocking locking elements can be provided on both housings.
- the housing gap between the relay housing on the one hand and the block housing on the other hand can also be sealed.
- FIG. 1 shows a control module according to the invention with a matching relay when plugged together and
- FIG. 2 shows a relay module formed from the relay and the control module according to FIG.
- FIG. 1 shows a control module 10 with a module housing 11, which can be combined with a relay 20 or its relay housing 21 to form a relay module 30 with a combination housing 31.
- the control module 10 has a substantially cuboid housing 11, which additionally has an integrally formed plug collar 13 on its underside or module connection side 12. This plug collar 13 encloses invisible connection elements, for example flat plugs or round plugs.
- the housing 11 forms a coupling side 14, in which not Visible plug openings are provided with plug sockets, which are provided for mechanical and electrical connection with the flat plugs of the relay 20 to be described.
- latching hooks 15 are formed laterally from the coupling side 14.
- a fastening tab 16 is formed on the opposite side.
- the relay housing 21 is also basically cuboid. It has on its underside or main connection side 22 two chambers 23, in which load connection elements 24 for high currents, for example 150 A, which are led out of the interior of the relay are arranged.
- the supply lines can be connected via screw terminals, for example. In order to achieve a complete separation of the load connections from the control connections, the latter are not led to the outside on the main connection side, but on an auxiliary connection side 25 of the housing 21 which is at right angles thereto.
- additional load connections 27 are used, for example, to measure the load current in the additional control module.
- Latching recesses 28 are formed laterally from the auxiliary connection side 25 in accordance with the latching hooks 15 of the control module.
- a circumferential sealing collar 29 is arranged on the auxiliary connection side 25, which is injection-molded, for example, from an elastomer material.
- the internal structure of the relay 20 is irrelevant here. It can be a conventional electromagnetic system, with the load connections 24 and 27 and the coil connections 26 being brought out in the manner shown by a corresponding structural design.
- the connections 26 and 27 are expediently fastened in the cap itself, and in a preferred embodiment their coupling to the coil connections on the one hand and to the load connections on the other hand of the relay can be carried out by pushing on the cap.
- control module 10 can also be of any type. Depending on the application, this module contains an electronic control circuit for controlling the electromagnetic system according to certain conditions, for example as a time control, as a battery isolating circuit based on certain specifications, as load current monitoring or for the purpose of reducing the coil power in holding mode. A diagnostic option can also be included in the control module.
- a combination housing 31 according to FIG. 2 is created, which itself is essentially cuboid.
- the coupling joint 32 between the two individual housings is finished in a wash-tight manner by the sealing collar 29, so that the plug connections 26 and 27 are protected with the plug sleeves (not shown) in the module housing 11.
- the main connection side 33 and the auxiliary connection side 25 on the relay housing on the one hand and the construction stone connection side 12 and the coupling side 14 of the block housing there is also a common connection side 33, from which both the load connections 24 and the non-visible block connections emerge in the plug-in collar 13.
